Elder advocates are speaking out against elder abuse by Oakland, California conservator Scott Phipps of Phisco Fiduciary. Phipps denies conservatee Elinor Frerichs her right to visitors and her right to phone calls. Phipps denies Elinor her right to attend court hearings on her case.

Elder advocate Lisa Miranda sent the following email to the Alameda County Board of Supervisors.

I am a concerned citizen following this case.

Please remove conservatorship of Elinor Frerichs and restore her to
her home. The conservator has acted negligently in not allowing Elinor
to attend her hearing (Elinor does not have dementia), to have visitors,
phone calls, and mail. Futher abuse by the public conservator is
keeping Elinor in a locked dementia unit, when she has not been
diagnosed with dementia. Elinor's situation is inhumane and a gross
violations of her rights. Elinor's money is the conservator’s motivation
in their acts of negligence and abuse.

The public conservator and Lakeside Park facility need to be
prosecuted so that this never happens to any other senior. Please
protect all senors and make this a case to prosecute the entities
involved and to protect the rights of all seniors regardless of
guardianship.

Please immediately remove Elinor from the isolation of the dementia
unit she is currently in and encourage Elinor to exercise her right to
have visitors, phone calls, and mail. Then replace conservatorship of
Elinor Frerichs with the ability to have Elinor live in her own home
with hired help. Elinor has the financial means to pay for her
independence and hired help. Elinor does not control her money so she
will not be susceptible to financial abuse.
